    Hello mrossano,
    So we can better help you, please provide additional details about your exact situation: WIN/MAC, US/CAN, Starter, Deluxe, Premier or Home & Business version of Quicken? Is your subscription active and your software up to date?

    When you go to add an account, (Tools > Add Account) what type of account are you trying to add?
    Do you receive an error message at all when trying to add the new account? What, exactly, happens when you try to add an account to the new data file?

    With more details about your exact situation, we should be better able to address your concerns.

    As an alternative, you might also contact support directly.

    First.... based upon the Release numbering - 16.2.4 -
    I'm guessing it is really a Windows install and not a Mac install -
    ... Help --> About Quicken
    Maybe a Windows install ON a Mac VM/Parallel system ??

    Not sure what you mean by .... does not pre populate...  WHAT bank ?
    As mentioned above..... once you have your Quicken file open,
    then just walk thru the screens to Add Account -
    ... Tools --> Add Account -->

    i must have a slightly older version. new account assistant. you click - This account is held at the following institution. it typically pre populated the institutions. but in this case I have nothing to select from. everything blank and can't add anything. in your screen shot above - you could probably click on checking or credit card and nothing would come up.

    Please do HELP, About Quicken (Quicken, About Quicken if running Q Mac) and tell us EXACTLY what Q product and BUILD of that product you're running.
    You're only confusing us, and yourself, with your changing story.

    You have Quicken 2007 for Mac. That software is actually 13 years old! The software has long been discontinued and is no longer supported by Quicken. You can use it for manual entry, but it does not work for downloading transactions any longer.

    Ahhh.... I'm not a Mac user - but searched on the forum for the "numbers" -
    and found this old screen shot -
    Guessing the old Intuit Mac version numbering
    was very similar to recent Windows version numbering.... hence - confusing -
    EDIT - updated topic title to better reflect Q&A - and actual Quicken version
